And how many companies need creative problem solving? Way less and less. The problem is the moat is getting higher.

Or the usual ways are non-conformant, dictated by the corps and their mindless followers.

Almost anyone learn anything they want now. This all cuts both ways.

If security is a solved problem then anyone that wants to teach themselves enough can move to trying to solve disease, until disease is solved, then we all move on to building enough robots to mass produce enough food to solve world hunger and shelter... and once the needs of everyone on earth are solved at an ever cheaper price until it is free... then I guess we do whatever we want.
